Safety instructions
General power tool safety warnings
@
Warning! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions listed below may result in electric shock,
re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers
to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery oper-
ated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the inuence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b. Power to the tool should always be supplied via
residual current device with a rated residual current of
30mA or less.
Additional power tool safety warnings
@
Warning! Warning! Additional safety warnings for
hand-held saws.
u Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting ac-
cessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator
an electric shock.
u Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
u Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach
underneath the work piece any reason. Do not insert
ngers or thumb into the vicinity of the reciprocating blade
and blade clamp. Do not stabilize the saw by gripping the
shoe.
u Keep blades sharp. Dull or damaged blades may cause
the saw to swerve or stall under pressure. Always use the
appropriate type of saw blade for the workpiece material
and type of cut.
u When cutting pipe or conduit, make sure that they are
free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
u Do not touch the workpiece or the blade immediately
after operating the tool. They can become very hot.
u Be aware of hidden hazards, before cutting into walls,
oors or ceilings, check for the location of wiring and
pipes.
u The blade will continue to move after releasing the
switch. Always switch the tool off and wait for the saw
blade to come to a complete standstill before putting the
tool down.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of

Pendulum action selector (g. E)
The FME365 has dual blade motion: straight reciprocating
motion or orbital motion.
Straight reciprocating motion is used for all metal cutting
operations and for wood cutting applications where nish is
more important than speed.
u To set the saw for straight reciprocating motion, turn the
selector to the position marked .
Orbital motion is used for fast cutting of wood.
u To set the saw for orbital action, turn the selector to the
position marked .
Sawing (g. A)
u Always hold the tool with both hands.
u Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting
the cut.
u Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while performing
the cut.
u If possible, work with the shoe (1) pressed against the
workpiece. This will improve tool control and reduce tool
vibration, as well as prevent the blade from being dam-
aged.
Hints for optimum use
Sawing wood
u Clamp the workpiece securely and remove all nails and
metal objects.
u Holding the tool with both hands, work with the shoe (1)
pressed against the workpiece.
Flush cutting
The compact design of the reciprocating saw motor housing
and pivoting shoe permit close cutting to oors, corners and
other difcult areas.
To maximize ush cutting capabilities:
u Insert the blade shaft into the blade clamp with the teeth of
the blade facing up.
u Turn the saw upside down so you are as close to the work
surface as possible.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
sawing wood.
u Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal. Use a ne-
tooth saw blade for ferrous metals and a coarser saw
blade for non-ferrous metals.
u When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap
wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
this sandwich.
u Spread a lm of oil along the intended line of cut.
Pocket cutting in wood
u Measure and mark the required pocket cut.
u Fit a saw blade suitable for pocket cutting.
u Rest the shoe (1) on the workpiece in such a position that
the blade forms an appropriate angle for the pocket cut.
u Switch on the tool and slowly feed the blade into the
workpiece. Make sure that the shoe (1) remains in contact
with the workpiece at all times.
Cutting branches
Branches up to 25 mm in diameter can be cut with this tool.
Warning! Do not use the tool while in a tree, on a ladder or
on any other unstable surface. Be aware of where the branch
will fall.
u Cut downward and away from your body.
u Make the cut close to the main branch or tree body.
Vertical cutting
The tool allows close cutting to corners and other difcult
areas.
u Insert the shank of the saw blade into the blade holder
with the teeth of the blade facing upward.
u Hold the tool with the shoe (1) facing downward so that
you are as close to the work surface as possible.
u Cut forward and away from your body.
